-
The Ecospiker's lighter tine suits smaller tractors up to 80hp. Running bigger gear? One of the other bale fork models will handle it better.
Customer story
Proven in the paddock
Hear from the cropping farmers who put Rata equipment to work every day.
“From past experience I have been impressed with the durability and simplicity of the gear.”
“We do about 4,000 individual wrapped bales per year, so its important to us to have Rata softhands to handle them, as they are really reliable, they don't break & are definitely the best brand we've ever used!
Because we've found Rata gear to be so reliable we also have multiple sets of their Bale Forks & Versatile Grapples as well!”
“We do about 4,000 wrapped bales a year. Rata Softhands are really reliable, they don't break, and they're the best brand we've ever used.”
“Because we've found Rata gear to be so reliable, we also have multiple sets of their Bale Forks and Versatile Grapples.”
“We've got two sets of Rata Softhands that have done 80,000 bales between them.”
“We decided to buy a third set because they're strong and reliable, and we haven't had problems with the other ones.”
“We've got about 15 Rata implements, from grabs, forks and buckets to a Maxitill and aerator, and we've had no issues with them at all.”
“Very happy with all the Rata gear we've got. I recommend them to anyone. Strong and reliable for doing big numbers.”
“These are our preferred bale grabs. Nice and thick, really strong, made tough. We do over a thousand bales a year.”
“It goes around and wraps the bale up, rather than going in and trying to squeeze the bale tight.”
“Perfect every time. No holes.”
“It's very easy to grease. It's got about six grease nipples, so you can grease it easily when you need to.”
